So it would be done outside.
So you'd have like a walled compound around that.
And then all the various things that would be happening, you know.
Also things outside that would be happening out there.
And then when you when you wanted to sort of go in, you'd go in and sort of come out of that.
And the idea was that like once you once you got out of there, like you were sort of a new person.
And I will say just from personal experience.
Yeah, you come out of that.
And first of all, you're really tired because you've been sweating.
It's just like hazy.
But you do feel like renewed.
And sweatbaths were all over the Americas, all over Mesoamerica.
And everything from like the elites to commoners had sweatbaths.
Everybody was doing it.
